I don’t want us to get this because if we do that fucker Frey will take credit for it.

So yes, Nobel, please amend to all Minnesotans
ICYMI: Commish Irene Fernando encourages The Nation to expand their Nobel Peace Prize nomination to include all Minnesotans.

The work in Minneapolis is awe-inspiring; good and important work is also happening across the state. 🤍

FYI you can do this at MACC too. Take a dog for a walk or run.

You might have to be a vetted volunteer, but the program is there.

It’s day 76 of the ICE occupation of
MSP.

ICE is still here - we still have vastly more agents on the ground than we did in late November.

And those agents are still kidnapping our neighbors and terrorizing neighborhoods.

Stay vigilant, and let’s pay rent for March 1 for everyone who needs it.

Mary’s Glamour and Beauty Salon on 66th and Nicollet in Richfield is Latina-owned and they NEED CUSTOMERS. If you need a trim, a dye, hell, go get a blowout on a random Wednesday. She posted on TikTok asking for people to book in her salon and help her out. I know some of y’all live in Richfield.

"From joining Sanders on the “Fighting Oligarchy” tour to endorsing Mamdani to her comments in Munich, Ocasio-Cortez keeps showing prescience and depth. Perhaps the right woman is staring right in front of us, and we should embrace her leadership." newrepublic.com/article/2065...
You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid
She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

My pastor was saying that if a big drawdown really does happen over the next weeks, people shouldn’t be surprised if movement infighting happens (and he said that can be a good thing about spiritual practices, all that stuff needs places to go), and I don’t love it but I know he’s not wrong.

Once again, this number is a disappointment to Core Civic (private prisons) investors.

Abolish ICE. Close the camps. Legalization for all.
ICE just released new detention statistics.

As of February 7, 2026, ICE is detaining 68,289 people across the United States.

I think this is right.

We didn’t beat them in Minnesota. They will regroup elsewhere. This is the end of the beginning.

The only way this ends is to Abolish ICE.

Close the camps. End this.

We’re going to continue being out there and patrolling to protect our neighbors until every single last agent is gone. We’re also going to keep this connection going and continue building community for long after whenever this operation ends.

If those who claim the authority of law do not obey the law, and the law does not stop them, then they do not have the authority of law, because there is no longer any law.
